More realistically, pick stadiums that are NOT physically located within the city limits of the teams represented.

Foxboro, MA
East Rutherford, NJ
Orchard Park, NY
Landover, MD
Miami Gardens, FL
Santa Clara, CA
Inglewood, CA
Paradise, NV
Glendale, AZ

I suppose most MLS soccer stadiums are too small for WC attendance.

They will all be in NFL stadiums. USA will get 10 or 11, Mexico/Canada will get up to three cities each.

Less than an hour away people. Who’s excited? Do you want to attend the tournament in 2026? Have you been to a World Cup match before or any professional soccer match before? Which cities do you want to be picked? Do you want it in your home state or province?

You don’t need to be at a game to have a great experience. Each city will have a WC atmosphere for over a month. North America 2026 is going to make non soccer fans at least start caring about their national teams (of course they could start to care in November too).
